Chapter 240 Emergency
It was a mission to expel a large rock snake that occupied a narrow mine.
No mine is willing to deal with this kind of Pokémon. Pokémon such as Rock Snake have a huge size, and have rock and ground attributes. They are extremely powerful, and they can just move their eighty-nine-meter-long bodies. It can make the mine make an overwhelming hum.
Not to mention that they are also very good at many ground-based moves.
If it is in a bad mood, even if it doesn't use the earthquake move, even just a heavy stomp may cause the mine to collapse, burying many mortal miners alive.
The big rock snake that caused all this can dig a hole in a new direction and leave without being affected at all by wagging its tail.
It can be said that Big Rock Snake is definitely one of the most troublesome Pokémon in the mine.
Including Luo Mu and Kimura, there were a total of eight trainers who were called to drive away the giant rock snake at that time, and many of them had water-type and grass-type Pokémon.
With Luo Mu's strength, he would not have been able to join this mission. After all, the electric attack of the Elek Cat could not cause effective damage to the big rock snake.
There was only one reason why he was selected, and that was that Vine Snake had learned a move called "Grass Knot" at that time, which was very effective against large Pokémon like Rock Snake that were completely defeated by grass.
The big rock snake has a very strong sense of oppression in the narrow mine, its roar is heart-stopping, and its huge body can make the surroundings vibrate just by moving. It is no exaggeration to call it a giant beast in the cave.
However, in front of multiple trainers who were prepared, Big Rock Snake could only have its weaknesses continuously targeted, and was beaten until it lost its combat ability. Then it was put into a Poké Ball, waiting to be sent back to the Pokémon Center for treatment before being treated by professionals. Sent to the deep mountains for release into the wild.
Because of the active performance of Ivy Snake, no, Ivy Snake, Luo Mu attracted the attention of the team, and naturally he got to know Kimura, who was the team leader at the time and was considered one of the best trainers in Anza Town.
At that time, Kimura was undoubtedly qualified as a senior trainer. He would occasionally point out Luo Mu's mistakes during training due to a lack of common knowledge in the Pokémon world, and his relationship with him had always been that of both teacher and friend.
After getting along for a long time, they will naturally learn about each other's past. When he learned that Luo Mu had collected two badges in a short period of time, Kimura clearly expressed his envy, enviing that Luo Mu's talent as a trainer was much better than his own. too much.
When he first became a trainer, it took him three months to conquer the first gym, and even more so for the subsequent gyms.
During the chat, Kimura talked about his past.
He is now close to thirty years old and has been stuck in the seventh gym for who knows how many years.
Even so, he would go to Bagu Town to challenge the gym at least once every year.
And Tan Xiaoshi is the new card prepared by Kimura to conquer the super power system Bakugu Gym. He plans to train Tan Xiaoshi into a blue flame blade ghost, and complete the strategy by restraining the ghost attribute of the super power system.
That was the first time Luo Mu met Tan Xiaoshi. At that time, Tan Xiaoshi's eyes were full of fighting spirit and desire to become stronger, as if he regarded Kimura's goal as his own creed.
Luo Mu felt that Kimura was very lucky to have conquered such a charcoal servant. It had all the elements to become a strong man. Even Luo Mu was a little envious of Kimura.
In several subsequent cooperation missions, Kimura also showed outstanding leadership, sense of responsibility and combat effectiveness.
To be honest, Luo Mu never thought that he would be the kind of person to abandon Pokémon.
But just when Luo Mu saved enough travel expenses and the Luck cat evolved into a Roentgen cat in actual combat and was about to leave the town, he met Tan Xiao in the wild, who had spikes all over his body and had a strong distrust of humans. Attendant.
Because he admired Tan Xiaoshi's character at that time, Luo Mu could guarantee that he would not admit his mistake. This Tan Xiaoshi was definitely Kimura's Tan Xiaoshi.
When I saw a Pokémon alone in the wild, it was obvious what happened to it.
Luo Mu admitted that he was confused for a moment and didn't understand why Tan Xiaoshi was abandoned. He wanted to approach Tan Xiaoshi and ask what happened, but what he got was Tan Xiaoshi's fierce resistance and resistance.
It was as if Tan Xiaoshi had completely distrusted any human being overnight.
Feeling confused, Luo Mu approached Kimura, and Kimura showed a calm and gentle side that was completely different from Luo Mu's impression.
His expression was indifferent, and his voice was as cold as the winter in the twelfth lunar month.
Luo Mu still remembers that passage to this day.
[It’s not good, it doesn’t have the qualifications to become a Cangyan Blade Demon. Even if I stick the cursed armor on it, it won't trigger the miracle of evolution. I'm nearly thirty years old, and my talent as a trainer is not as great as yours. How long can I stick to my dream? 】
[I’m not willing to give in. I think I work harder than anyone else. Why can’t I pass the seventh gym, even once? I want to go to the alliance’s headquarters for the final interview]
[I spent a lot of income on it, but what it gave me in return was this kind of answer? There is no point in training any more. Instead of wasting time on it, it is better to get together and relax. If the snorkeling weasel is given more exercise, we might still have a chance]
Kimura's obsession made Luo Mu realize for the first time that persistence can make such a big change in a person.
Faced with Luo Mu's question about why he abandoned Tan Xiaoshi, Kimura sneered, as if he was mocking his naivety.
[Although the alliance stipulates that Pokémon cannot be abandoned or discarded, I am the one who tamed the Pokémon outside of this town. I feel that it is not suitable for me, so I release it to the place where it once lived. This does not violate the law]
After leaving these words, Kimura walked away. Next, there is the story of Luo Mu, who cannot bear the hatred and loneliness of being abandoned, and how to conquer it.
Thinking of this, the skin with burn marks on Luo Mu's right arm itched slightly, which made him withdraw from his memories, return to his mind, and walked into the Pokémon Center without hesitation.
It's said that Tan Xiaoshi has no potential. With its efforts, didn't it evolve into a blue flame blade ghost and become a powerful shadow swordsman?
But now neither Luo Mu nor Cangyan Blade Ghost have any thoughts of causing trouble for Kimura. Life is pretty good now, and there is no need to cause trouble for themselves.
Even the Blue Flame Blade Ghost had already forgotten about that person.
Luo Mu came to the Pokémon Center not to see if he could squat down in Kimura to have a slap in the face about the return of the Dragon King, but just to meet an acquaintance.
Entering the Pokémon Center, soothing light music reached my ears. There were many people gathered in the hall. There were the most people near the notice board dedicated to posting tasks, but among those people, Luo Mu almost didn't see it. Familiar people, but more new faces.
There are many trainers with immature expressions on their faces, probably newcomers, making money here just like he did back then.
He walked through the crowd and came to the front desk with ease. It seemed that it was the most leisurely time. Joey, who had beautiful and smooth pink hair, was leisurely drinking hot tea and watching TV series with his beautiful eyes without blinking.
Fat Keding, who was her partner, was nowhere to be found. He probably went to inspect the ward.
At a glance, it was clear that she was fishing again. Luo Mu coughed slightly, which startled Joey. She hurriedly put the phone down and blurted out the words she had said countless times: "Welcome to acupuncture." Pokémon Center, what kind of help do you need, Luo Mu?"
Joey's voice was mixed with four parts surprise, three parts surprise, two parts hesitation and one part nostalgia.
Luo Mu smiled, waved his hand, and said jokingly: "Long time no see, sister Yumei, you still like fishing so much."
There are many Miss Joys who look almost the same in this world. They all share the surname Joy. Only a few people who are close to her know their real names.
Luo Mu once chose to live in a multi-person room in the Pokémon Center for a period of time because he was short of money. It was also at that time that he met Miss Joy, whose name was Yumi.
"I'm really sorry!" Joey's tone was filled with dissatisfaction. He quickly put away the snacks on the side and looked at Luo Mu curiously: "Why are you here? Aren't you traveling to other cities?"
"I"
"Wait, don't say it, let me guess!" Before Luo Mu could say anything, Joey stretched out his hand to silence Luo Mu, and said with great interest: "Which gym did you lose to? Don't be discouraged. It’s great to challenge so many gyms in such a short time. Or are you trying to make money because you don’t have enough travel funds?”
"There have been a lot of tasks lately, so you came at the right time."
"Looking at your expression, it seems that I guessed it all wrong?"
Joey's voice gradually became smaller and he looked at Luo Mu suspiciously.
Finally shut up, Joey Yumei is still as talkative as ever.
Thinking of this, Luo Mu had no choice but to say: "I have retired as a trainer. Now I have opened a farm in Pingdie Town. I happened to come to Xuzha Town today because of work."
"As for the gym challenges, I passed all eight gyms and the final championship test."
"."
Joey's expression changed again and again. If he heard Luo Mu say that he retired, Joey's expression was surprised and intolerable, as if it was a pity that Luo Mu's talent did not persist.
When she heard the second half, her expression quickly changed to surprise, and she looked at Luo Mu as if she were looking at a rare species. Her lips, which were so wide open in shock, could even hold an egg.
This is championship level! ?
Joey didn't think Luo Mu was bragging. After knowing him for a while, she still knew that Luo Mu was not the kind of person with extreme vanity. There was no need to lie to her with a lie that would be revealed immediately.
Joey admired from the bottom of his heart: "You are so awesome. If Mr. Kimura knew about it, he would definitely be more surprised than me."
"But he is leading a team on a very important mission now. How long do you have to stay in Xuzha Town? Maybe they will be back in the evening."
Hearing the word Kimura, Luo Mu's expression felt unnatural for a moment, but he quickly covered it up and said with a smile: "I just came here to see you and catch up on old times. I will go back later. There is still a farm. A lot of things.”
"That's fine. I'm very happy to see you build your own home."
Joey Yumei showed a gratified smile without hesitation.
Although she wishes everyone a blessing and prays that their journey will be smooth sailing.
But Luo Mu has achieved such success and lived a stable life, which still makes her feel gratified when her children grow up.
After staying in the Pokémon Center for a while, Luo Mu chatted a lot with Joey Yumi, including travel experiences and interesting things, as well as trivial matters at the farm, which exposed Yumi who had been staying at the Pokémon Center in Anza Town. A longing expression.
They Joy are the lifeline of every town. While they abide by their duties to save lives, they also lose the opportunity to freely go where they want to go, but as long as they listen to the stories of travelers, they can continue to persevere.
During this period, there were several small earthquakes in Xueza Town. Both Luo Mu and Joey looked unsurprised. There were many rock-type and ground-type wild Pokémon in the wild of Xueza Town. The aftermath of mutual fighting will always spread to Anza Town.
It's nothing unusual.
After reminiscing about old times, Luo Mu waved his hand and said: "Sister Yumei, I'm leaving then. I'll come to see you if I have the chance, and I'll bring you some specialties from the farm."
Joey also responded: "Okay, I will look forward to it."
Just as Luo Mu was about to walk out of the Pokémon Center, there was suddenly a rush of footsteps outside, and several familiar faces Luo Mu knew ran into the Pokémon Center in a panic.
They were holding Poké Balls in their hands, or holding injured Pokémon. They were in a state of embarrassment and shouted anxiously: "Miss Joy! Please heal our Pokémon!"
"Oh my God! Su En, Morey, Shuli, what's going on? Aren't you trying to expel Bankilas who broke into the mine!?"
Joey quickly ran to a few people, frowning and diagnosing the condition of their Pokémon.
"The injury is serious and must be treated as soon as possible, Fat Keding!"
Joey directly called out to his partner. Soon, there was a sound of rolling wheels, and a fat boy who was pushing the emergency bed with both hands came running quickly.
After sending several seriously injured Pokémon into the treatment room, Joey looked at the people with a serious face and asked, "What happened? Aren't you driving away Bankelas?"
Su En covered his head and said with a painful look on his face: "That Bankelas is too strong. Just a Pokémon that came into contact with us was injured. Now Uncle Kimura is leading people to deal with them."
"We escaped not only to heal Pokémon, but also to seek support. Please issue an emergency mission to summon trainers to go there for support!"
Joey nodded and said solemnly: "I understand."
Before she could turn around to announce the emergency mission, Luo Mu, who remained silent and just watched, said calmly: "Where is the location?"
Joey paused. Su En and others looked at Luo Mu and said in surprise: "Are you Luo Mu? Are you back?"
"Long time no see, everyone." Luo Mu nodded slightly, and then asked in an urging tone: "Where is the mission location? I will handle it."
